Paul Heyman has resurfaced in a new video promoting his role in the new WWE 2K Battlegrounds video game.
Heyman served as the Executive Director of WWE Raw from June ’19-’20. WWE opted to consolidated its writing teams, with Bruce Prichard serving as the head.
Heyman is a focal point of the 2K Battlegrounds Career mode of the arcade-style brawler. In the video seen below, Heyman holds ‘story time’ running down the different game modes.
“The world of WWE is your battleground with all-new, over the top, in-your-face arcade action as your favorite WWE Superstars and Legends battle it out in outlandish interactive environments around the world,” reads a description of the game.
WWE 2K Battlegrounds is set to be released on September 18th, 2020 for major video game consoles.
RAW Ratings Since Paul Heyman’s Departure
The ratings for RAW increased for 2 weeks after Heyman was removed from the creative team. They have since fallen to numbers below what they had been during Heyman’s time as Executive Director of the brand.
June 7th, 2020 was the last RAW with Heyman in charge. It did 1.737 million viewers and a 0.52 in the key demo. Typical ratings for the show in his last couple of months in charge hovered around the same numbers. RAW ratings in July then slipped to around 1.6 million and below a 0.5 in the key demo. They have increased the last two weeks, however, with numbers again hovering around 1.7 million viewers and a 0.5 in the key demo.
